24、rt and James, lived with their mother and a cat named Edgar. James was particularly devoted to the cat, and when he had to leave town for several days, he left Herbert careful instructions about the pets care. At the end of his first day away, James telephoned his brother, “How is Edgar?” “Edgar is
25、dead.” Herbert answered. There was a pause. Then James said, “Herbert, youre insensitive (漠然的). You know how close I was to Edgar. You should have broken the news to me slowly. When I asked about Edgar tonight, you should have said, Edgars on the roof , but I have called the fire department to get h
26、im down. And tomorrow when I called, you could have said the firemen were having trouble getting Edgar down, but you were hopeful they would succeed.

30、d roll music developed in the United States in the early nineteen-fifties. It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians.

31、e the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group from England invaded America: the Beatles. Some people say the Beatles music shook America like an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were
32、influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any musical group be-fore them. The Beatles released their first album in the United States in 1964, when all of the top five records in America were by the Beatles. In
33、1967, they released an album called “Sergeant Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.” It was one of the first “concept” albums.

36、acid rock, and heavy metal rock. Punk rock, jazz rock, and glitter rock. In the middle 1970s, experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll.
